CSGO running smooth for a couple seconds, then HEAVILY dropping, then going back to normal, repeat

NVIDIA Open GPU Kernel Modules Version

515.57-9

Does this happen with the proprietary driver (of the same version) as well?

No

Operating System and Version

Arch Linux

Kernel Release

5.19.0-rc7-1-mainline

Hardware: GPU

GPU 0: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 Laptop GPU (UUID: GPU-712fbdf4-63a5-5e55-3624-58bcb8b9aac3)

Describe the bug

With the proprietary driver, CSGO runs at around the same framerate as it does with the open-source driver. Except that with the open-source driver, the game runs smooth(200-250FPS) for around 3-5 seconds, then drops to around 16-20FPS for around the same amount of time, and then it goes back to normal and repeats the cycle indefinitely.

To Reproduce

  • Open CS:GO
  • Start a game, preferably with bots on Mirage because that's what I tested it on.
  • Hopefully see the same results as I did.
